“I got my first tattoo from Leyna when I was 18 and I was pretty nervous for the whole process but she is absolutely amazing! The environment she provides is so safe and comforting. Since my first appointment I've come back every few of months and I've now had five sessions with Leyna and each time I become more obsessed and proud to have somebody's artwork on my body forever. I seriously cannot recommend her enough! I tell everyone I can about Leyna Grace and The Lavender Archive! It can be really hard to find an artist who is welcoming to everybody and trustworthy and I'm so lucky to have come across her Instagram last summer.”

“Leyna did my first ever tattoo. She was so caring, gentle, very friendly and made my whole experience positive. From that first tattoo, I had decided she would be the only one to do my tattoos and she has been! I’ve gotten 4 total tattoos from Leyna & each have been such a great experience. She’s very creative as well! I had her design my tribute tattoo to my daughter with only telling her the key points. She surpassed my expectations with the final designs & it’s easily my favorite tattoo she’s done! 100/10 recommend to anyone considering a tattoo from Leyna.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Leyna. I first got work done by her before TLA was born into existence and already loved the art and her as an artist, but continuing to work with her at TLA has topped the experience ten fold! The atmosphere and overall feel of her space is so welcoming and friendly, making the whole process from designing to the tattooing a wonderful experience. I get so many compliments on my sleeve and I love telling people about TLA. Thank you Leyna!”

“[Leyna was} extremely patient and caring while I was getting tatted and had amazing energy and kept me distracted while in pain. I have no complaints, [Leyna’s] rates are beautiful, her work is beautiful, and everything she stands for is beautiful!”

“I’m so excited to see [Leyna] again. I’ve seriously told all of my friends in and out of Colorado about the space and how welcoming both she and the energy are. Even just the simple tattoo I got was an amazing experience. I don’t think I’ll ever go to a different artist/studio again.”

“I’m often nervous about getting tattoos because I can be picky about the look, size, and location and I worry about offending the artist. Leyna made me feel so comfortable to be open about my wants, and that resulted in two beautiful tattoos (so far). She is kind, caring, and supportive and makes you feel like a friend right away. Her artwork is beautiful - her ability to hear a client and put those words into art is uncanny. I will never go to anyone else but Leyna again!”

“I went to Leyna to start my patchwork sleeve and I will never go anywhere else. First off, she’s a badass and awesome, but more importantly she is an incredible artist. She listened to and gave me exactly what I wanted every time. Her freehand work is also INCREDIBLE!!”

“Leyna is one of the most patient and talented artists I’ve ever worked with. Her freehand sketches are so impressive to watch come to life with ink, and she works efficiently and gracefully. She’s incredibly inclusive and from what I’ve seen makes all her clients feel comfortable and confident. LOVE HER”

“Absolutely love Leyna and would not recommend anyone else to be my tattoo artist. She made me feel so comfortable through both of my tattoos from her. She talks you through the whole process and just makes you feel like she’s actually taking care of her. The healing process was amazing for both of my tattoos. I had no issues at all with healing or anything. My tattoos still look amazing. 100% recommend her.”
